Quantum chemical studies on certain mitomycins - AM1 treatment

2001-06-15
Türker, Burhan Lemi
Mitomycin-C, a widely used antitumor antibiotic, and its analogues mitomycin-A and porfiromycin are considered for AM1-RHF type semiempirical quantum chemical treatment. The structural and energetic aspects, as well as certain molecular orbital characteristics of these structures have been compared.

Fluorinated cyclacenes - AM1 treatment
Türker, Burhan Lemi (2002-07-05)
The peripherally fluorinated Huckel type cyclacenes having 3-7 benzenoid rings (R) were considered for AM1 (restricted Hartree-Fock) type semiempirical quantum chemical treatment. The cyclacenes having one or two of the peripheries completely fluorinated constitute type-I and type-H structures, respectively. All of them were found to be stable. Type-I systems are endogenic but type-II structures, R:5 onwards are exogenic. The cryptoannulenic effect was found to be operative partly on the heats of formations...
Quantitative expression analysis of the genes potentially involved in clavulanic acid overproduction in streptomyces clavuligerus
Aktaş, Caner; Özcengiz, Gülay; Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics (2018)
Streptomyces clavuligerus is the producer of the medically important β-lactam antibiotics, including cephamycin C (CC) and the potent β-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid. (CA). We have already undertaken an extensive comparative proteomic analysis by using both 2-DE-MALDI-MS and GeLC-MS approaches between an industrial CA overproducer, namely DEPA and the reference strain NRRL3585. In this context, we documented several differentially expressed (over- and under-represented) proteins accounting for high CA...
The effect of para-cyclophane structure on cyclacenes
Türker, Burhan Lemi (2000-02-01)
Semiempirical molecular orbital treatment at the level of AMI type has been performed on the Huckel type cyclacenes having the normal and the skew type para-cyclophane moiety embedded into their structures. The cyclophane effect is found to be operative on the lower members by veiling the cryptoannulenic effect which is influential on the heats of formation values and the frontier molecular orbital energies of the higher members as well as the parent cyclacenes.
Theoretical aspects of Si-60 structure having endohedral beryllium species, Be and Be+2
Türker, Burhan Lemi (2001-07-30)
Endohedrally Be and Be+2 doped Si-60 structures, Be@Si-60 and Be+2C@Si-60 are considered for AM1 type semiempirical molecular orbital treatment at the restricted Hartree-Fock level. The highly endothermic but stable structures are expected as the result of the calculations. Some donor-acceptor type electronic interaction between the dopants, Be and Be+2, and Si-60 cage occurs, causing some geometry distortions leading to high dipole moments as well as affecting the molecular orbitals
Some properties of cyclacenes and silacyclacenes
Türker, Burhan Lemi; Celebi, N (1997-04-01)
Various Huckel type cyclacenes and silacyclacenes are subject to semi-empirical molecular orbital treatment at the level of AMI type. Cyclacenes having silicon atom at the peri and fusion points of arenoid rings as well as all-silated cyclacenes are considered. The cryptoannulenic effects, frontier molecular orbital energies, geometries and polarizabilities of these structures have been examined.
